Two More Princess's Arrive

On Monday I flew to Buffalo, New York to bring Jaime, Mya & Emily back to California on Tuesday. Matt wasn't able to come due to a job change last week.......

Going to check out the new barn Matt built for his chickens

The girls love to catch the chickens.......they were showing Nana how it works

So here's the catch!

Going for a summer evening walk in Buffalo, New York

Time to tell daddy good-by..........very early in the morning!

Here we go.........still in the PJ's

Mya gave Nana some flowers when she landed.........we decided to bring them back to California with us to enjoy!

Putting our traveling clothes on and getting ready in the restrooms

This will be the first Plane ride Emily remembers

Waiting and watching all of the planes

Mommy and the girls

Nana and the girls

We're finally on the plane.......

Things to do.........

More things to do..........like watching movies!

Time to change planes........

We hit a snag in Las Vegas and Nana re-routed us after a 3 hr. wait and we didn't seem to be going anywhere.

Finally on our way to Burbank.........Emily loved sitting by the window.........this plane had more room!

Mya loved her freedom!

Burbank can be fun because it's kinda retro........unless your traveling with small ones and alot of luggage! We had to go down, then back up again to re-board!

Finally.........Sacramento, California...........Emily had to follow the path!

Now Nana has to remember where she parked the car?!?

Maybe it's over there..........

You mean we get to ride a bus?

Another first for Emily..........a bus ride

Way cool!

Nana's playroom is soooo much fun!

Auntie Kate had "new" Barbies waiting for us!

Watching old VHS Disney Movies in the "retro" room :)

A very tired Mommy

Soooo many jewels for such a little girl

Yes, a princess can wear her crown any way she wants to!

Emily loves to turn anything into a song..........here she is singing her way through the book!

Nana PLEASE.............NO MORE PICTURES................

NOT EVEN FROM THE BACK, NANA!!

Watching Mya's Pre-School end of year program so fun............. felt like we were there!

She sang the loudest so we could even hear her!

Snuggle time with Auntie Kate

A Night With 2 Princess's @ Nana & Papa's

Ok, so the boys had a overnight @ Nana & Papa's,

now it was time for the girls.......

Nothing like blue juice in a blottle

Dinner of choice was.......PIZZA, and we had to eat outside!

Loving the trampoline...........

Nana bought new matching dresses when she was at work.....

Play time after our bath..............

and gummy worms just before bed..........thanks to Papa!

Story time..........

which one will it be?

Many stories.........but they have to be Bible stories @ Nana's......... we had fun with The Wee Little Man...........and singing the Zaccheus song..........and The Wise Man Built His House!

Time for bed............loving Uncle Cody's bed while he's still in Ireland :)

Sleepying with Minnie Mouse pillow..........thanks to Auntie Ashlie when she was a little girl!

Are we tired or what............

A goodnight kiss from Snow White ............Katelynne's pillow when she was little..........the grandkids are loving the character pillows from their mommy, daddy's, aunt & uncles

younger days.............

.............and they finally fell asleep............so, so sweet!

Cinnamon Rolls for breakfast..............

Claire was loving it!

Time to dress for church in our matching clothes..........

Nana did you really do this for Auntie Sarah, Ashlie & Katelynne? They thought that was sooooo funny!

and nana still has the touch!

Ohhhh, how fun to look alike............

Nana & the girls.............

Papa & the girls.................

Heading off to Sunday School..............

What a fun time with 2 very special little grandaughters............

This Nana & Papa are very blessed!

Thanks Bethany & Claire.............we had so much fun!!

Fun Times With Keagan & Landon

Last Saturday Keagan & Grandpa went to the river bottoms and did some Rabbit Hunting.........yes, they did catch one of those cute, soft, furry, little things..........I saw it skinless in my refrigerator when I came in from my trip!! Oh, he reminds me of his daddy here...........

Uncle Cody's in Ireland..........so the boys had his room all to themselves!

Rise and shine..........the peeps were barley open and the Wii games were going..........

A sleepy look...........but having so much fun..........summer time, no shoes & no shirts!

Grandma made a farmers breakfast for the hungry fellas..............

Heading out to one of the Tree Houses.............

It's been a while.........so it must be cleaned!

The best part about this Tree House, is it's so secluded!

Working away on clean-up and repairs!

Discovering the back acres..........oh so fun!

Oh, this could have been Tim & Matt........I have so many memories like this one on a hot summer day, the two of them making plans!

Discovering Uncle Cody's Secret Box

hmmmmmmm, wonder what's in it?

One for you and one for me!

Now let the fun begin!!!! Real boy toys!

A summer day @ Grandma's..........and Orange Soda Pop...............

and all the ice cream a boy can eat!

Now it's time to cool off...........how high can you fly Keagan?

Boys will be boys..........these were Cody's spy detectors.........they were planted all over the house.........every time I went into a room I could hear them go off, and I could hear the boys snickering.............

Keagan's Spy clothes! So glad I saved all of the dress-up clothes!! Also, all of the bed sheets.........they make great forts! I have bed sheets dated back to when Brian was 2 yrs. old.......it's a Sesame Street one......priceless!! It was fun putting the Toy Story (from Uncle Cody's younger days) on the pillow for Landon.......he thought it was quite funny!

Time to come inside and cool down..........more Wii!

Off to mail the letter they signed for Uncle Cody..................

then to the Penny Candy Store in Live Oak..........every kids dream! It was so fun watching them pick out candy for their sisters!

This place ROCKS!

Now that they are all sugared up and worn out I guess I'll take them home............isn't that what grandma's are suppose to do?

Thanks Keagan and Landon..........I had fun!!

Next it's time for Bethany and Claire.........what girly things can we do girls?
